Serenity Hawley, 17, from Blacksburg, Virginia, was shot dead in a suspected murder-suicide just days before she would have turned 18.
The high school senior had sought a no-contact order from her former boyfriend Croney Monk two weeks prior because her ex was allegedly harassing and blackmailing her.
Monk allegedly shot Hawley in the chest before turning the gun on himself on Tuesday, the teenage girl's family told 10 News.
Her heartbreaking death was discovered when the bodies of both teens were found in Hawley's car in a parking lot, the Roanoke Times reported.
